The introduction for concentric reducer

Everyone knows concentric reducer is also a kind of butt weld pipe fittings. Besides concentric type, there are eccentric reducers. The difference is that if the center is on the same line.

Concentric reducers are used in piping systems to connect pipes of two different outside diameters.

Both concentric reducers and eccentric reducers decrease the effective size of the pipe.

With smaller crosssectional area there is increased frictional resistance to the flowing material and an increase system pressure.

The concentric reducer is made with both inlet and outlet on a common center line. 

This reducer is less costly to manufacture than the eccentric type and is adaptable to most piping installations.
